That’s honestly pretty dynamite as BTS always sez.

Pynchon has always had dumb jokes like that in his books; there's a line in GR that says something like
>...he is accompanied by his batman, corporal Wayne...
or something very similar, also there's a line in The Crying of Lot 49 (or maybe it's Inherent Vice, can't remember) where a character mentions a law firm called Voorhees-Krueger

This is a pynchonism.
>Oops, I did it again as Britney
This reflects the times of the story

What's the issue?

no one evolves past 13 mentally, pynchon just canalizes and realizes his chuuni energy

and the only reason you wouldn't write it now is because you've been conditioned to associate pop-culture references with embarrassment by "cake is a lie"-style internet fandom. pynchon grew up before everyone was mindbroken by internet communication so it's still funny to him. don't begrudge the guy for being less fucked up than you.
